Thanks and yeah it was a short bed. I was suprised i measured the wheelbase of the 2wd it was like 98"? and the 4runner 103" but the wheelwell was perfectly centered when i set the bed on.

So everywhere I've checked around for wheels they have 4.5" BS for 17" wheels, and I decided just to get some crager soft 8's with custom 3.5" BS. Should be around $435 shipped..so I will be ordering those next friday

and my crossmember will be here tuesday!

Once that is in I'll move onto the body mounts. I've got a cool idea for them..stay tuned.

im in, this truck is cool. When I first started to read I didnt know what to expect but so far so good!

GrenadedToy · « **Reply #49 on:** Feb 28, 2009, 08:20:31 PM »

All I've done lately is I welded the bob all together and set it back on the frame. I need to cut out the horseshoe cross member so my cab will sit level. Mounts shouldn't be to bad. Just hope the weather is nice the next couple weeks

GrenadedToy · « **Reply #58 on:** Mar 03, 2009, 03:00:18 PM »

Went out and took some random pictures cause I Got This.

Set the fender On to see what shes gonna look like. I need to trim the bottom to match the rocker.

Tubing is just there to get the body to sit where I want. Gonna have to start hackin for the IFS box. Good spot for a winch, eh?

Some sick stencils. My buddy Dave gets the credit for these.

That is All.

Now off to work..
